The little interlude with a VERY SPECIAL EFFECT (!) is very difficult to
transcribe. When I play this part, I switch my WAH on and I play an E5
power chord. I follow the rythm with my wah pedal.
The last bar of the 3rd verse have a slight variation of the main riff.
(That's when UDO sings : "We are born to die")

|-3--3--2--1--0-----X-X-X-X---| Don't pass by the prechorus (and don't collect

Here's the riffs for the solo part (beginning at the end of the 2nd chorus)

Play this riff 2 times then play the same thing 2 times again but play
it on the 6th (E) and 5th (A) strings instead of the 5th and 4th.
After that replay 2 times this riff on the 5th and 4th strings (like the 2
first time!)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official ACCEPT tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
